263. Canonized
The emperor announced on the day of the Wanshou Festival that he was going to set up the crown prince, the news was like a big thunder thrown into the lake, the entire lake was blown up and splashed everywhere, every place was born, the news spread quickly from the capital to the whole country, far away from the grade is not enough, there is no say in this kind of big thing, and it has little to do with them, so it is just to watch a lively, but, everything wants to seek the merit of the dragon, at this time there is no one who can calm down, they can't wait to know, who the emperor will choose, some people read the emperor's hint, began to increase the intensity of the palace of Prince Yong, but there are also some cautious elements, until the last moment will not make a statement, The emperor just hinted at it, and did not issue an explicit decree, so there is no need to be too nervous, you might as well wait and see for a while.
In fact, there are not a few people who hold this kind of cautious thinking, who let the emperor do a few years ago to do something that is not trustworthy, the ministers asked him to make a prince, he said that he wanted the courtiers to recommend, and as a result, they recommended a king of eight sages, because they did not agree with the emperor, they were rudely disqualified by the emperor, there is such an example of rebellion in the front, the emperor's hint does not seem to be accurate, and some people want to fight so.
Moreover, even if Yinzhen is really made the crown prince, it doesn't mean that the courtiers will come to bow down to him, don't forget that there is a tragic example of the former prince who is two sets and two abolitions, the prince, you can stand, then of course you can pay for it, until the end, who dares to guarantee that he will be able to ascend the throne? It is tempting to work from the dragon, but this thing has been done, it is a huge benefit, but if it is lost, the loss is also huge, people with a background will not easily fight for this credit, and even some clan ministers, for their own interests, even the emperor has to fight, not to mention a prince? The prince who does not meet their interests, I am afraid that what they think in their hearts is not to support and maintain, but how to get him down and change his choice.
Therefore, being established as the prince really can't say that the overall situation has been decided, and there are still many variables in the future, but to be able to stand out from the princes and become the prince, he first occupies a dominant position, to put it mildly, if the emperor has three long and two short, the prince is the logical heir, and if others fight, then they will conspire to usurp the throne, which is the difference of the prince.
The people of Prince Yong's mansion learned that Yinzhen was very hopeful of being made the prince, so there was no excitement, and they couldn't think of a deeper reason, but the simple truth is still understandable to everyone: if it is not important to be the prince, why did the abolished prince hold on to his position back then? Why did Yinzhen have to use all means to fight for it? Of course, it is because being the prince is a great advantage! So everyone has to fight for it, and now, seeing that their prince can go further, how can everyone not be excited?!
Shu Yierha is naturally also one of the excited, she is different from others, she knows that Yinzhen was not established as the crown prince in history, but directly succeeded to the throne after Kangxi's death, and the process of his succession also left a big mess, and said that the emperor was originally going to pass on the throne to him, but after he registered, his political enemies who failed in the competition began to pour a basin of dirty water on him, shaping him into a ruthless person, killing his father and killing his mother to ascend the throne; There is also a theory that the emperor went relatively suddenly, so he failed to leave a clear edict on the throne, but Yinzhen controlled the situation in the capital at that time, so he successfully ascended the throne with the help of Long Keduo and others, and these three statements seem to have a certain basis.
Shu Yierha is more inclined to the first and third, but her private tendencies do not represent anything, Yinzhen's succession is doubtful, but if he ascended the throne from the crown prince, it will be much more logical, even if there are still people talking about it, but the strength will definitely be much smaller, it is a very favorable condition for his reputation and governance after ascending the throne, and as soon as he ascends the throne, he will be immediately accused of usurping the throne, and everything will be restricted, he will have a much better start than in history.
At one point, Shu Yierha knows in his heart that the emperor's lifespan is really not too long, if he is as long as Qianlong in history and can live to be in his eighties, then Yinzhen is now made the prince, and he may have to be a whetstone for his younger brothers, but the emperor is not so long-lived, and being made a prince at this time is a great advantage.
Thinking of these follow-ups, Shu Yierha is also looking forward to the future, she is very eager to know, is the emperor really interested in Yinzhen, or is he setting up a pretense to confuse everyone? Is it true that it is naturally a thousand good, if it is fake, it is not a good thing for Prince Yong's mansion, Shu Yierha has a limited understanding of the emperor, I only hope that he can be a little accurate this time, and stop being so freewheeling.
And this time the emperor didn't let people guess for too long, said that he wanted to set up a prince, then he took the initiative to stand quickly, hinting that it was Yinzhen, then it was really Yinzhen, he didn't play any tricks, it was all real, at March 20, he mentioned the matter of establishing the prince again at the court meeting, and said that the holy decree had been prepared, and the Ministry of Rites and other departments were to prepare, and the canonization ceremony would be held next month.
With the emperor's words, everyone in Prince Yong's mansion put down some hearts, and soon, the promotion arrived, Yinzhen led the whole mansion, respectfully accepted the order, this time it was half of the nail on the board, everyone had a sense of steadfastness that the dust had settled, and the concentration was almost already looking forward to the big celebration in the house, but was ruthlessly vetoed by Yinzhen, what a determined person Yinzhen is, if he doesn't finish the last step, how could he allow the house to show a little pride? Without the canonization ceremony, he, the crown prince, would not be official, and it would be too early to celebrate now, in Yinzhen's opinion!
Yin Zhen is really cautious, until the end, he didn't dare to let go, he was afraid that the emperor would make some moths during this period, in case the emperor changed his mind again, wouldn't it become a joke? Yinzhen still has such a hidden worry in his heart, but it is not easy to mention it to anyone, fortunately, this time the emperor is really reliable, and the decision he made was also carefully considered, not a whim, therefore, shortly after the holy decree arrived at Prince Yong's mansion, the Ministry of Rites also received a clear will to prepare the canonization ceremony on April 26, and Yinzhen was relieved of his heart at this time with everyone.
